In today's competitive business landscape, understanding your market size is essential for strategic planning and long-term success. At DataInfer, we specialize in leveraging data-driven methodologies to evaluate market potential with accuracy and insight. Here’s how we can help you assess your market size and uncover opportunities for growth.


Why Market Size Matters

Market size provides critical insight into growth potential, revenue forecasts, and competitive positioning. Whether launching a new product or entering a new market, understanding your Total Addressable Market (TAM), Serviceable Available Market (SAM), and Serviceable Obtainable Market (SOM) is the first step toward sustainable success.


Our Approach to Market Size Evaluation

  1. Defining the Market
    We begin by identifying your target audience, segmenting customers, and analyzing industry-specific dynamics. This ensures a precise focus on the most relevant market segments.
  2. Data Collection and Analysis
    By gathering data from industry reports, market surveys, and proprietary databases, we develop a comprehensive market view. Advanced tools like Python, R, and Power BI enable us to transform raw data into actionable insights.
  3. Estimating Total Addressable Market (TAM)
    TAM represents the full revenue potential if your product or service captures 100% of the market. For example, we could analyze global customer support software spending, estimating a TAM of $15 billion. This gives a high-level view of the overall market opportunity.
  4. Calculating Serviceable Available Market (SAM)
    SAM refines the TAM by focusing on the portion of the market your business can realistically serve. Through competitor analysis and customer demand modeling, we narrow down the target market to actionable segments.
  5. Determining Serviceable Obtainable Market (SOM)
    SOM identifies the share of the market you can capture in a defined timeframe. By using predictive models, we help forecast customer acquisition and set realistic growth targets.


Potential Applications

Imagine a scenario where a company seeks to introduce an AI-powered customer support platform. We can analyze the industry landscape and:

  • Estimate a TAM of $15 billion based on global software spending.
  • Identify a SAM of $3.5 billion by narrowing focus to mid-sized businesses in North America.
  • Project a SOM of $175 million over two years using data-driven forecasting.

This type of evaluation enables businesses to prioritize resources, attract investors, and align growth strategies with market realities.
